Rufus is a stunning Malamute-Husky mix with a heart as big as his fluffy tail. He was found abandoned at the downtown Stockton transit center, waiting patiently and hoping someone would come back for him. Sadly, no one did. Now, this sweet boy is looking for the forever family he deserves.
Despite everything he has been through, Rufus is incredibly friendly, gentle, and calm. He has been loved on by multiple people, including children, and has soaked up every bit of the attention. He’s affectionate, well-mannered, and does a wonderful job following commands. Rufus has an easygoing nature that makes everyone he meets fall in love with him.
He walks nicely on the leash, and is happiest just being part of the family. Rufus would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, loving, and steady presence in their life. Rufus is ready to leave his past behind and start fresh with a family who will never give up on him. If you’re looking for a sweet, devoted best friend, Rufus may be the perfect match for you!
